The Railway Train
Emily Dickinson, 1896
I like to see it lap the miles,
And lick the valleys up,
And stop to feed itself at tanks;
And then, prodigious, step
Around a pile of mountains,
And, supercilious, peer
In shanties by the sides of roads;
And then a quarry pare
To fit its sides, and crawl between,
Complaining all the while
In horrid, hooting stanza;
Then chase itself down hill
And neigh like Boanerges1;
Then, punctual as a star,
Stop—docile and omnipotent—
At its own stable door.
1The name of a thoroughbred race horse famous in North America in the late 19th century
